So this is using a windows() device under Windows?  No other R graphics
device has a plot history.  The history is only supported to the extent of
replaying on the same device in the same session.

Why not just re-run the R commands which created the plots on apostscript(0
or pdf() device?


General comment: this message did not mention the OS, and would make no
sense to people who have not used the history mechanism on a windows()
device.  Could posters please give sufficient context.
